What is the importance of the construction sequence loading option in ETABS?
To analyze incremental construction, the structure is modeled as a series of stages. Each stage is represented by a group of objects (points, lines, and areas) called an active group. You may change the active groups (stages) within a static nonlinear case and/or between consecutive static nonlinear cases. In the most common case of construction sequencing, each subsequent active group will include the previous active group plus some additional objects. However it is also possible to remove objects from one stage to the next. Each change in stage is analyzed separately. If multiple stages are considered within a single static nonlinear case, multiple analyses are performed within that case and the results of all of these analyses are available as a single case. When changing stages within a single case, all added elements are subject to the same load pattern. When analyzing the change in the structure from one stage to the next, the program looks for objects that are present in one act
Construction sequencing loading option in ETAB is used and is important for designing, analysing and modeling building. Equiped with 3D modeling generation and fully integrated interface this features has helped a lot for manu home renovation and remodeling service providers. The benefits are far more important for construction design providing linear statistic analysis and static linear analysis.
